Oh, well, my daughters are both over 40, and have no intention of running for Congress anyway, and the oldest of my grandchildren is seven this year--a bit young to ever suffer a Trump presidency when she reaches an age when she even could run for Congress.

And some Republican low life automatically assumed that every Jew in Congress had automatic Israeli citizenship? You mean like every Trump supporter in Congress also holds automatic Russian citizenship?
